2. Cox model engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cox_model_engine

   The Cox .049 Engine is a 2-stroke internal combustion glow plug engine. These engines use an electrically heated glow plug to ignite the fuel/air within the cylinder on start-up. Once running the battery is disconnected and ignition is similar to a diesel engine. The self ignition is due to the heat produced from the compression of the air/fuel ...

3. Glow plug (model engine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glow_plug_(model_engine)

   The glow plugs used in model engines are significantly different from those used in full-size diesel engines. In full-size engines, the glow plug is used only for starting. In model engines, the glow plug is an integral part of the ignition system because of the catalytic effect of the platinum wire. The glow plug is a durable, mostly platinum ...

4. Model engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_engine

   The burning of the fuel/air mixture in a glow-plug model engine, which requires methanol for the glow plug to work in the first place, and sometimes with the use of nitromethane for greater power output and steadier idle, occurs due to the catalytic reaction of the methanol vapor to the presence of the platinum in the filament, thus causing the ...

5. Cox Models - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cox_Models

   In the 1950s and 1960s until recently, Cox has produced a line of hobby-oriented models of cars, airplanes, and other vehicles. The most noted are the .049 cubic-inch displacement glow fuel powered models, controlled by line (Control Line) or by radio (Radio Control).

6. Glow plug - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glow_plug

   Glow plugs installed in a small engine (beneath the horizonal bar) Glowplugs are typically used as starting-aid devices, when the engine is being cranked by a starter motor, and in most cases switched off when the engine has reached a defined minimum operating temperature.

7. Spark plug wires - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spark_plug_wires

   Four spark plug wires (distributor end on the right, spark plug end on the left) Spark plug wires (also called high tension leads) are electrical cables used by older internal combustion engines to transmit high-voltage electricity from the distributor to the spark plugs. Tension in this instance is a synonym for voltage. High tension may also ...
